Cable Installation

CAUTION
Cable connectors used in outdoor applications must be sealed to avoid leakage. Moisture
can seep into junctions at the plug end of the connector, between the fixed and movable
parts, and where the cable connects to the connector. Signal attenuation and possible loss
of signal can occur in the presence of moisture. All cable junctions must be sealed with a
self-amalgamating tape, such as 3-M, Type 23 Scotch, or equivalent once installation and
commissioning is complete (user supplied).
Care should be exercised in cable installation. Install the cables using the
most direct route and secure with clamps and ties. Avoid all sharp bends.
Replacement of the cables can be the result.
